Subject: Collector's Corner..The Last Beautiful Day

As is well known..Billions of years from now..our Sun will Super Nova and engulf
the Earth
before this time..there will be one..final.. beautiful day with a clear blue
sky..white puffy clouds  birds singing and children playing with their toys
the Last Beautiful Day

Jeroen Noomens post about the defective Champion got me to thinking of this Last
Day

as the years roll by..more and more of the old computers become defective
yes some can be repaired, but the overall rate of computers no longer working
over and above those being repaired always increases
furthermore, sooner or later all Eproms containing the program code will erase
and be lost forever

there will be one ..final ..day..when the last chess computer that works..stops
working..and there are  no longer any dedicated computers alive

that day will be a very bad day

I Pray its Not a Millennium computer regards
Steve
